Assignment: write a RELAX NG schema for Keats _On first looking into
Chapman's Homer_.
I (deliberately) wrote a ridiculously literalist schema, attached.
When I create a new XML document that uses this schema, oXygen
properly inserts the required elements, including all 14 required
<pLine> elements. When I ask for auto-completion (CTL-space) of the
<head> or any of the @n, oXygen does the right thing and gives me
the one and only correct choice as the only possible value in the
pop-up.
But when I ask for auto-completion of <pLine>s 2 through 14, the one
and only possible value in the pop-up is the content for the first
<pLine>!
Worth noting that jing gets it right. After filling in the content
using auto-completion, validation will say of <pLine> 2, e.g.,
character content of element "pLine" invalid; must be equal to
"And many goodly states and kingdoms seen;"
Details:
<oXygen/> XML Developer 17.0, build 2015052917
Mac OS X 10.6.8
error occurs using XML syntax or compact syntax
Also tested on:
<oXygen/> XML Developer 17.0, build 2015051321

only tested compact syntax
